Hey y'all,

This meetup occurs on Thursday May 27th from 5:30pm to 8:30pm central time!

We'll meet virtually via Jitsi, and I'll post the meetup room link in the comments here and on our other platforms 5-10 minutes prior to 5:30pm.

Suggested readings:

(1) Thoughts on Iterated Distillation and Amplification, by Waddington; Note: this is a post reflecting on the Iterated Amplification AI Alignment approach sequence curated by Paul Christiano, so reading it and getting the most out of it requires significant background reading. I didn't realize that when I initially read it and then added it as a suggested reading. I'm leaving it up because I found it interesting and thought provoking, but I still do need to read the sequence it reflects on...anyway. Don't stress about this one if you don't want to.

(2) The Ideology Is Not The Movement, by Scott Alexander

(3) The Specificity Sequence, by Liron

If you have any readings and/or topics suggestions, please comment here or message me.

Looking forward to seeing everyone who can make it, here's to having good discussions and hanging out! :)

Cheers,

Willa
